Melanie read the greater fraction of her book 1/45
The axis of symmetry is found within the set of parenthesis with the x. If our h value of the vertex is -4, then the axis of symmetry is x = -4. D is that choice. Cannot graph it here, but your vertex is sitting at (-4, 4), it's an upside down parabola, and some other points on this graph are (-5, 0), (-3, 0), (-6, -12), (-2, -12). You could graph it using those points and the vertex without a problem, I'm sure.
L*W= 36
Rewrite to get:
l = 36 / w or w = 36 / l
Either one show =s the inverse relationship between w and l
Equation for x and y graph:
y = 36 / x
Not similar one is using a 20 in area and the other is using a 96 in area
